How to integrate production lines 

Next, you will follow some important points to start the line integration process in your industry and ensure more productivity. 

1 – Compare the current process and the future

Have you ever stopped to assess how your current process is and where you intend to go? 

To answer this question, you must keep in mind the importance of an integrated and automated process. Technology is a great ally in productive performance, ensuring cost reduction and better results for your business. 

There are countless possibilities and technological resources that bring small and large transformations to the process of your industry. One of them, with great potential for change, is automatic palletizing. 

Its application is a positive strategic transformation, but it does not require rigorous changes in your company’s current work system and infrastructure. 

2 – Set sales and production sector goals 

After defining how your process is and where you want to go, it’s time to list what your goals are. 

The sales target is an important tool for organizations that aim to increase results and align expectations. This starts with a market analysis so that the goals are realistic and clear. 

With a complete analysis, the company has a basis for decision-making, highlighting its priorities. 

It is also worth remembering that companies can monitor productivity, focusing on the final result, setting goals in their productive sectors. Using this same tool in the production process, it is possible to enhance quality and efficiency. 

In this way, your factory will be prepared to produce at its full capacity, ensure more organizational motivation and keep constant control of productivity. 

3 – Determine the main product of your line

It is essential to evaluate the availability of each product in your production line. Thus, you guarantee that the quantity is sufficient for the supply and for an integration of lines with a met demand. 

Having this vision of your production, your business supports good productivity at each stage of the process, reinforcing efficiency and safety in the production chain, guaranteeing quality control in accordance with the expected parameters. 

4 – Adopt the SKUS code

To ensure proper logistics for your production, it is important to keep an eye on SKUS codes. An effective and organized management of storage and stock is essential for the success of your organization. The greater the mix of products and the volume of inputs and outputs, the more challenging it will be to control this inventory. SKUS codes will help you and facilitate this process.

Its efficiency is directly linked to the amount of SKUS that the company is producing. From the data collected with inventory control, it is possible to increase the productivity of your industry.

5 – Define the type of packaging

The type of packaging must be considered in this process, as it interferes with the protection and conservation of the product, logistics and at the point of sale. In short, it involves the production process and impacts the final result of your business.

The material, size and design of the package are connected to the cost of storage and transport and, of course, the aesthetics for the end customer at the time of purchase. Therefore, it is important to strategically define the type of packaging for your product.
